Audio-Technica ATH-PRO7X Professional On-Ear Closed Back DJ Monitor Headphones

Very quality headphones for the price! Better than expected sound, but my ears start hurts after a while, which is normal for most of the head phone of that size - the cushion pads are about 7 cm ( < 3 inches) in diameter, which is not enough big to overlap the whole ear that results in more pressure on the ears. There is some sound leaking, but that is normal. Otherwise excellent built, materials and sound - balanced sound, not have bass! They look durable and long lasting to me despite that I bought them recently.

Excellent price for beginner's DJ headphones. Compares nicely to Pioneer DJ Cue 1 headphones.

The Ath pro7x arrived within two days. While holding these headphones I was just amazed, highly impressed with the sound and construction quality these Audio-Technica provide. Build quality of these Audio-Technica is litte bit below HD-25 and DT-1350. HD-25 new cost $149.HD-25 feels more solid in hands with its solid strong plastic construction, while DT-1350 comes in second place construction wise but feels like unique pair of headphones with its metal solid construction and cost a heavy amount $199Sound quality wise Ath pro7x tops both the Sennheiser HD-25 and DT-1350 in comparison. HD-25 offers clear highs with slightly v shaped sound with solid tight bass slam with no sound stage to it. Ath-pro7x tops the senn HD-25 with its crystal clear extended top end with clear neutral mids, while bass remains clear tight punchy with a very good amount of sub-bass. Ath pro7x hight sensitivity can make it a good pair with any smartphone or with a little mp3 player without the need of additional amplification.On the other hand DT-1350 is kind of harder to drive with high 80ohm rating, but it offers very wide sound stage compare to Audio-Technica sound stage which goes little bit narrow sort of vertical. DT-1350 offers very good amount of imaging and resolution but , this $59 Audio-Technica offers almost the same sound quality as of DT-1350 for a lower amount of price. highs are sharper and clear on ath-pro7x in comparison to DT-1350. DT-1350 offers little bit rounded forward mellow liquidish mids, while pro7x mids remain neutral clear with full detail and resolution. pro7x delivers more bass quantity wise but compare to DT1350 bass definition and detail slam and sub-bass sounds clear fast and punchy. great for nickleback rock music.I will always choose Ath pro7x over HD-25 and DT-1350 for the SQ these Audio-Technica are able to deliver at way lower price compare to the other two.Fyi pro7x also sounds better compare to headphones I have owned, Ath50x, Ath40x, Ws1100i, Srg440, JVC s500, harx700, portapro, ksc75,pioneer hdjx7, hyperx cloud alpha, pioneer hrm5, sony v6, mdr7506 koss dj200, tascam th-02, grado sr60i, panasonic htf600, philips shp9500, akg240, sennheiser hd558, hd518, hd598, audio-technica ws99 and ws55. jvc ha-s400

Like others it seems, I randomly stumbled into these pair of headphones. Considering the price was immensely cut from the original MSRP I thought I had nothing to lose really, and I do not regret it.After testing them with a number of genres (rap, uk dub, jazz, rock) using my Hiby R3 Pro (all 16 bit flacs or higher)It does best with vocal, rock, jazz or anything airy sounding like lil peep. It defines the bass well, but not very fun, so it is as marketed (these are geared towards DJ's so naturally it would have that monitor-esuqe features)Sound is lovely but the earpads are a bit of an issue as the sound leaking from these are crazy due to incomplete seal on ear. highly recommend replacement ear pads (I think 70mm would be perfect fit, my 75mm pads wont fit)But for 60 USD what more can you ask for?

The headphones snapped above the right muff after 2 months. Don't get me wrong, these are great sounding headphones especially for the price. However, they aren't very durable. Fortunately they do have a warranty. Will update after contacting about warranty.

the look sleek but am worried that the sturdiness of the materials will be put to the test. These may be better suited for home use as oppose to taking on the road where they will be bumped around. still, i got these for a ridiculous price and am excited. already used them for a few sets and can hear a dramatic difference in clarity.

+ Sound is really clear and nice, very comfortable fit, looks cool- zero noise cancellation, can hear mouse clicking while listening to music. Not foldable, takes more space than could.

I normally buy all my gear from the same store, but they are selling these exact headphones for $200, still can't believe I paid less that $60 for these. They sound great and the build quality is right there.
